Can anyone tell me if this is an own specie or if it is a NIL or ......!!???

In Sweden the commercial gardenshop called it Murgrönsvinda translate to English something like Ivy bindweed.

You might want to take a side view of the bloom to show the sepals? I am sure someone here on this forum will be able to answer your question. The blooms and the leaves on your vine are lovely! :-)

Hi Sylvia,

Your plant and flower look very much like the variety we call Beni Chidori or Cameo Elegance. As these terms were used in the title of the thread, I assume they may have been on the label as well? These plants typically grow as smaller plants with smaller leaves and flowers than most morning glories. The leaves will have more white in the variegation which is sometimes termed "crystal variegation."

Beni Chidori and Cameo Elegance are considered Ipomoea nil, but probably have some other species (maybe Ipomea hederacea) involved and their parentage.

Thanks for sharing your photo and welcome to the Morning Glory Forum! - Arlan

Thank you all, I thought so too, that it is a Ipomoea nil kind.
I grow it last year, very pretty and a small kind of plant. The seedlabel when I bought it was as the title of the thread:
Ipomoea benichidory 'Cameo Elegance'
Then I label it on my homepage as
Ipomoea nil Cameo Elegance instead is´nt that more right.
